I remember working at my uncles shop ( as an electronics technician ) for a year around 8 years ago
these were my job duties
I had to read and interpret mechanical, optical, and electrical specifications.I used multi-meters, digital oscilloscopes, DVM and function generators
I tested analog and digital circuits and generated test reports in MS Word, MS Excel and MS PowerPoint.
These are the job descriptions that I could put in words.
But i can't remember why i was testing , reading and measuring all these voltages and so on and so forth .
I dn't know if he was an evil genius working on world domination or if he was working on a project that relates to world domination ?
the bad thing is that i need to add this to my resume ,and i wanna write what was it that i was working "ON" .
what do you think , in your mind , was I working on ?
any help would make me glad .
Thanks.

A project to convert all the neurons in your brain to yogurt.
The project was a complete success, completed on-time and was under budget. It will look super on a resume!

You may very well not have ever known what you were doing it for. Anyone can learn to read meters and follow a testing regimen, it doesn't mean that you had much knowledge of electronics or what you were exactly doing. It's no different than the ladies working on separating uranium by reading a meter and turning a knob, they had no idea of what they were doing other than keeping the meter within a certain range.
Reading 1.75V on a meter simply doesn't give you any idea of what that 1.75V is doing in a circuit, you have to have quite a bit of other knowledge to be able to follow more than very basic circuits..
Essentially, if you were only following someone else's testing procedure the experience doesn't count for that much other than general work habits. If you don't remember why you were doing it, then this is almost guaranteed to be the case..

From your description you were either working on a cure for cancer or saving the world from a nuclear reactor leak that was responsible for the death of many, many people. Thank goodness for your insight and skill set. For crying out loud. If you don't know what it is, don't put it on a resume. Someone will ask you about it and you will not have any answers.

say that you worked on a plot to save dying babies and to end world hunger... just throw in some big vocabulary and you're almost guaranteed the job

Have you taken recreational drugs since then, or during that time?
